Bulk Buying Post-Procedure Repair Masks for Canadian Clinics: Case Sizes and Storage
A hydrating sheet mask and a medical face mask are ordered from the same catalogue page and stored in the same cupboard, and they are not the same product. One is a cosmetic applied to a client's skin after a treatment; the other is worn by staff as PPE. Buying the first in case quantities is a logistics exercise, and treating it like the second is the mistake most clinics make.
What is a post-procedure repair mask?
A post-procedure repair mask is a single-use hydrating sheet mask applied to the skin after a treatment such as a peel, microneedling or a laser session, to settle redness and support the skin barrier while it recovers. It is a cosmetic, packaged in an individually sealed sachet, sold by the mask rather than by the box for staff use, and it carries a best-before date. It belongs in a treatment-room supply drawer, not in the PPE cupboard with the surgical masks, because the two lines are counted, stored and reordered on different schedules.
How is it packaged, and what does a case hold?
The format sold to clinics is a 6-pack, and the line is supplied as a 2 x 6-pack case, which is 12 masks. Case sizes and storage differ from line to line in an aesthetic treatment room, so it helps to keep the formats side by side.
| Item | Unit format | How it is counted | Where it is stored |
|---|---|---|---|
| Repair mask, hydrating | Individually sealed sachet | By the mask; 2 x 6-pack = 12 | Treatment room, room temperature |
| Repair ampoule serum | Sealed 2 mL ampoule | By the ampoule; 5 x 2 mL | Treatment room, stored upright |
| Medical face mask | Individually wrapped | By the mask; 50 per box | PPE cupboard |
| Nitrile examination glove | Boxed | By the box | PPE cupboard |
How should a clinic store repair masks?
Store them sealed and flat, at room temperature and out of direct sunlight, and rotate the case so the oldest sachet is used first. A sachet that has been opened and left is no longer usable, and a mask that has dried out in a warm room will not sit the same way on skin. Keep one case behind the working drawer so a busy week does not become an emergency order, and write the best-before date of the incoming case on the storage box.
How many should a clinic order?
Count treatments, not clients. A clinic that applies one mask after each peel, microneedling or laser session and runs 20 of those appointments a month uses about 20 masks, so a 12-mask case is under three weeks of cover and a two-case order is the sensible starting point. The post-procedure repair mask and the repair ampoule serum run on the same schedule and are reordered together. The nitrile examination gloves used to prepare the treatment live in the PPE cupboard and are counted with the rest of the staff PPE. The medical aesthetics collection groups the treatment-room lines, and the med spa collection lists what a multi-room clinic stocks.
